My First order

[CrazyBear]

Hi All got my first order today. I took a couple of pens along to my cardiac rehabilitation class to show to a fellow penmaker.

Another patient saw the pens and asked me to make three for his sons for Christmas. Three Euros in Honduras Rosewood burl for $30 each

I have probably undercharged but I am chuffed to bits to get my first sale.

He might even get a slimline in the same wood as a bonus for his wife.

Becca I just found out what you mean..

I was carrying The honduras Rosewood Euro, another Euro in Desert ironwood and the daft slimline with the wonky knot. I went into a computer shop to visit a friend and showed her the pens. She wants a slimline in the desert Iron wood for $30. I then went to the supermarket where I met another old friend. The subject of pens came up and I showed him what I was making. We parted and continued shopping. 5 minutes later he cals me over and asks me how much I sold my pens for. I then walked out of the store Minus the rosewood and with an additional $40 in my pocket.

Both asked for contact cards in case they wanted to order more for christmas.

I must get some cards printed up [][][]
